Or, what I do when I get up at 5 am and can't get back to sleep-
I probably shouldn't be writing this. I wish I could just keep this all a secret. But I can't. I have to tell this story. Not because I am concerned about the public discourse, and the integrity of political process, but because it's just so god damned funny.
One day last week I woke up at 5am. Don't ask me why. There was no good reason. I don't have to be at work on most days until 9, and its only a 45 min drive when it's not raining, and it wasn't raining that day. Point is, there was no reason to be up at 5am. But I was, and once I was, there was no falling back asleep. So, I put on CNN. I'm a news junkie. I can change, I promise. If I marry someone who isn't , I will probably be sneaking off to watch the news in the basement when no ones looking. Like a porn addict. But instead of Debbie Does Dallas, I'd be watching Countdown with Keith Obermann (Anthony, are you ok down there? Yes, honey). I'd actually prefer to marry someone who knows who Keith Olbermann is and wants to watch him with me, but that's another story... anyway...
